Nominations Open for 2025 Farm & Food Care Saskatchewan Champion Award

Farm & Food Care Saskatchewan (FFC SK) is now accepting nominations for the 2025 Champion Award—an annual recognition of individuals who go above and beyond in building public trust in food and farming across the province.

The Champion Award celebrates a member of the agricultural community who demonstrates outstanding advocacy and commitment to engaging with consumers, helping bridge the gap between the farm and the fork. This recognition is open to farmers, researchers, industry professionals, and anyone who plays a key role in positively representing modern agriculture.

The swine industry has seen incredible leaders emerge as advocates over the years—those who share the story of pork production, explain the care and commitment behind the work, and drive transparency around animal agriculture. If someone in your network is making a difference, now’s the time to nominate them.

Nominations are due by October 1, 2024, and the award will be presented at the 2025 Canadian Centre for Food Integrity Public Trust Summit.

Let’s continue celebrating those who work tirelessly to build trust in Canadian agriculture—one conversation at a time.

Dr. Troy Rowan sits down with CLEAR Conversations host, Tracy Sellers. Dr. Rowan was a featured speaker at the 2025 State of the Science Summit at UC Davis. The event will return next year on June 16-18, 2026, continuing its focus on advancing livestock methane research and collaborative solutions.

Rowan, now an assistant professor at the University of Tennessee Institute of Agriculture, grew up surrounded by cattle on his family’s Charolais operation in Iowa. His family has been farming and ranching there for more than a century — long enough for the rhythms of agriculture to get in his blood.
